MCQ
Which element exist in free state mainly
  • A
    $Hg$
  • B
    $Fe$
  • $Au$
  • D
    $Zn$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$Au$
c
Gold$(Au)$ atoms are found in free state because:

Metals that are least reactive exist in free state in nature.

Some of the elements that are found in free state in nature are Gold$(Au)$,Platinum( $Pt )$, Silver$(Ag)$,etc.

Therefore, $\operatorname{Gold}( Au )$ is a metal that is found in free state in nature.
